The Chicago Blackhawks have agreed to terms with forward Andrew Shaw on a two-year contract extension, through the end of the 2015-16 NHL season.

Shaw, 22, has tallied four goals and seven assists for 11 points in 18 games with the Blackhawks so far this season.

"It's great to come to this agreement with Andrew and keep another important member of our team here in Chicago," said Blackhawks GM Stan Bowman. "Andrew has proven his ability to play a prominent role on our team and we look forward to watching him continue to grow as a player for the Blackhawks."

Shaw, a member of the 2013 Stanley Cup Championship team, notched nine goals and six assists for 15 points in 48 games in his first full NHL season in 2012-13.

Originally drafted by Chicago in the fifth round (139th overall) of the 2011 NHL Entry Draft, Shaw has recorded 49 points (25G, 24A) and posted a +11 plus/minus rating in 103 career regular-season games.
